Hello there,

As suggested in the title, I'm looking for a good BL manga with a certain age gap that doesn't involve shota or terribly old characters.

I'm fine with both Shonen-ai and Yaoi, Slice of Life, Drama, Tragedy, you name it. I only ask for a uke that is not a crybaby and for the art style to be as far from shoujo as possible. I also don't care who plays which role.

These are the ones I'm already familiar with:

Hana wa Saku ka (my absolute favorite)
Yuuutsu na Asa
≠ - Not Equal
Karada Meate de Warui ka (the second story)
Kuimonodokoro Akira

Some by Shoowa too...

I even suffered through most Junjou Romantica only to read about the Terrorist couple, haha.
I've also read some by NAONO Bohra but usually her Ukes are just too old (if I'm not mistaken).

Anything less than 5 years is not an age gap 😛

Perhaps I'm being too picky but... well, here it is anyway.
Thank you in advance 😳

It's the Art of Time, it's the Art of Life--
Of the player and the craftsman,
Of the writer of songs, of the creator of love,
Of those who will follow, of those who led,
There's no other way in the world ahead ♥

Maybe this could help?

With 'age gap' in mind I took a look at my complete list. I only made it half way through before deciding that I had quite a list and decided to stop lol.

It has been a while since I read a few of these, so I apologize if some of them don't fit 100% 🙁 ~ I tried my best to remember ~

I noticed, after looking back over these, that most of them are student/teacher.... >.< ~

I didn't look at your complete list, so I am sure you have read quite a few of these... that is why I listed so many. Hopefully you will find a couple that interest you that you haven't read yet.

If you tell me the ones that you like out of this list, I may be able to find you a few more after going through the rest of my completed yaoi.

Katsubou no Manazashi
After Morning Love ~ this one may fit... I just don't remember how far apart they are in age >.<
Ai no Kotoba o Uragaeshi
Aijin ~ again... I fogot how much younger the uke is....
Anata no Shimobe ~ from the cover it looks like it would be borderline shota, but it can't be because I don't read shota and I read this.... but then again... lol I could be wrong? There isn't a shota tag, so it should be safe.
Ano Kado wo Magatta Tokoro
Aozora no Sunda Iro wa
Sweep!
Ashita mo Koko de Aou
Ashita no Kimi wa Koko ni Inai
Barairo Mitsubachi
Body Talk Paradox.
Boku no Kichiku Megane
Dear My Mister ~ I think the first story would fit... again, not sure how far apart they are in age
Deki no Ii Kiss, Warui Kiss
Dekiai Rule
Dounimo Naranai
Fake na Junjou
Futari no Musuko ni Nerawarete Imasu ~ I'm not too sure about this age gap... but either way, it is a REALLY hot read ^.^
Hard Core Heart ~ this is a threesome love... but one of them is older so it kind of makes it fit 😃
Hidoi Otoko.
Himitsu no Koibito Sengen
Jounetsu no Young Man
Junjou Karen
Kono Te de Yokereba
Kawaii Hito.
Kibishiku Aishite
Koi Shika Dekinaiyo
Koishite Daddy
Meguriau yo Baby
Mizu Numuru
Oni ni Hatsujou
Onozomi no Mama ni
Open Air
Ore no Tenshi wa Mayonaka Akuma ~ this is a weird one, but there is an age gap and I think it is an awesome story

Here are some that I didn't have in my reply to the Looking for good age-gap yaoi thread suggested by dalek. The other thread also has lots of good titles.

Yorokobi wa Ude no Naka - one of my favorites, I hope the seme is not too old for your liking.
Voice or Noise
Akuma wa Hohoemu - he waits until the object of his affection is legal, or it would be shota.

Shitsuji wa Oose no Mama ni
You're My Loveprize in Viewfinder
Best Ending? (maybe?)
Hana wa Saku ka
Goshujinsama to Wanko (maybe?)
Hope it helps!

Edit: Yume Musubi Koi Musubi this is really, really, really good!
And most of KANDA Neko's works are really good - also, even the uke is usually very manly.

So many recommendations. Thank you all so, so much <3 I have never heard of most of them which is always good, haha.

Thanks 😳 I'll keep that in mind while reading some of these.
As for the student-teacher category, although it's not one of my favorites I don't mind giving it a try every once in a while 😛

It's the Art of Time, it's the Art of Life--
Of the player and the craftsman,
Of the writer of songs, of the creator of love,
Of those who will follow, of those who led,

Kusatta Kyoushi no Houteishiki by Kazuma Kodaka is another very good series with big age-gap. The uke x seme relationship is similar to Yaya Sakuragi's Yume Musubi Koi Musubi that I also highly recommend.
